that's why 72% of nra members, 72% of nra members support limitations that we don't even have in place yet. like the fact that we don't have universal background checks for all gun owners. we could close those loopholes. >> bill: ill think you skill fiscal cliff dodged the question. i'm not here to debate gun control. that's not the segment. the segment ms. sussman i will give you a couple minutes to think about it because i will will go. liberals don't want to expose people who have abortions. they don't want to show ids at polling places and they don't want the police to stop illegal alien drivers. yet, they do want to expose people who have the legal right to have a firearm. it seems hypocritical, ms. maxwell or am i crazy? >> you are not crazy, bill. but i do not see the hypocrisy here. what i see here is that the gun ownership and the names of the gun owners that's something a 11-year-old can find in google search. that's part of the public record. while i question the judgment of the journal news for publishing the names of these gun owners, i don't necessarily say that they did
